I am still learning, and am most likely incorrect.
I believe you remove the 3's since their not needed, and do this:
2x = 4x + 6 - (2x)
so then just ignore "x" and do this:
2 = 4 + 6 - 2
2 = 10 - 2
2 = 8
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4) 24/30=4/5
5) 2/24=1/12
6)14/84=1/6
7) 20/45=4/9
8)7/49=1/7
2a+1 + 3a+2 +5a-9 you would start by combining like terms
2a+3a+5a= 10a
1+2-9= -6
10a-6=94
then subtract 94-6=88
then divide 88 by 10= 8.8
a=8.8
A. 9 dozens
b. 3,579 cents
c. 32 pairs
d. $190.45
e. 288 cookies
It would be 196/9 or 12.7777 in decimal
